WAIT ONE MINUTE!  If I remember correctly, you didn't need a guidebook to 
find Alice's restaurant.  Just had to follow your nose.  Isn't that the 
italian place with the absolutely fantastic pizzas (even by "western" 
standards) - served lawsuit hot - right out of the oven - still in their 
cast iron pans that kept cooking until long after the pizza was gone.  No 
worries about getting sick eating there.  :-)

Or wait, am I thinking about the restaraunt around the corner in the other 
direction across from the bookstore and building that got demolished in the 
three weeks I was on my trek.  :-(

I'll have to go check my journal and guidebook ;-) at home.  Hee hee.
